[Two Months Later]

" What you making?" I asked candy as she stirred some bread mix up. I had just got home from work at the cartoon Company and she had called while I was there to ask was I hungry. Now I'm home and it smells good.

We not once have talked about that kiss since it happened, but she seems to have gotten closer to me for the past 2 months.

" Gumbo and rice with corn bread." she said popping my hand away from the pot on the stove.

"Mmm, Smells like my mama's cooking. I haven't had homemade food in a hot minute." I said rubbing my stomach at the thought.

"Well, your mamma did teach me how to cook remember?" she said.

"Tuh, Yeah you know how to make her famous pecan pies?" I asked excitedly she looked at me now like I asked a stupid rhetorical question. Well, I actually did and I felt stupid.

" Please keep up." she laughed at me.

" Hey mane, I'm sorry." I said and surrender chuckling at my stupid self.

She's been extra sweet to me lately and I've been a little pushy. I want to tell her to go for that nigga and get out of my space, but she's my amigo. And she's 5 months man. She glows more and she got a little bigger.

" I knew you were slow but damn G, you got yourself beat." She laughs she put the corn bread in the oven and set the timer for 15 to 20 minutes leaving it into the living room.

"Ooo, Stop there. Fast & Furious 6!" she said leaning into me. I do so and pull her to me getting the throw blanket to cover us.

Did I mention she still sleeps with me? the second day she tried for the guest room because of what happened between us earlier that day. Monday morning came and she  complained about the bed doing something to her back.

I told her I had no problem with her staying in my bed, because I had a temper pedic.

So after her bath and my shower, I rubbed her butt until she falls asleep and held her as I fell asleep.

It's a routine I have no problems with. Touching her ass is golden to me, but holding her is the best thing in the world.

We watch the movie halfway through it felt like and soon she had to get up to get the corn bread out the oven.

" I'll get it you can chill." I told her getting out from under him warmth.

" I gotta go potty so do what you gotta do" she said getting up too with a little struggle.

I helped her up laughing as I watched her waddle to the bathroom around the corner from the kitchen.

I went to the kitchen and open the oven after getting the heat resistant pan holders. I got out the pan with some oven mitts and place them on top of the heat resisters.

I felt arms wrapped around my waist and my whole body tensed up.

"Chris." I heard her say behind me. I didn't want to turn around, but you know how that go.

"Yea-oh yo!" I grabbed hold of her before her she stumbled back away from me.

" Damn C-dawg don't roll up on me like that. I was about to beat that ass til' I saw who you was." Guesturing like I was about to fight. She rolled her eyes at me.

" Chris, you couldn't fight me in 6th grade so what makes you think you gotta chance with Laila Ali now?" She said  posting up.

"That's 'cause I- I- Imma lover not a fighter. A nigga roll up on me and I will hug him to death. Like, kill 'em with kindness C-dawg know I'm sayin?" I said to her like I was an ordinary thug from off the streets. Walking her back to the living room.
